Author's Note: Hi everyone! I'm very excited, I have just finished the first chapter of my very first fanfic. I'm very excited. If you couldn't tell I'm new here, well not new new, but new to writing here. I was inspired by so many great pieces here I couldn't resist to try my own hand at it. And well it's here! Also a disclaimer: I do not own any of the characters or Miraculous: Adventures of Ladybug and Chat Noir. Or else season 2 and 3 would have come out decades ago.

Now that's outta the way, I hope you enjoy this! (Have in mind that this is only the prologue)

Prologue

A dark aurora swirled around the city. Nothing can compare to the size and darkness, however it seemed to disrupt people's view on it. 12 hours that was all the time that remained between death and life. Tikki and Plagg sat in the centre of the aurora, contemplating the decision that now rested upon their tiny god-like shoulders. Either decision came with sacrifices, bring their chosen's back and possibly be separated forever or leave their chosen's dead and let the enemy win. The cycle would still continue but Maia and Apollo would die before their time.

"The price, Tikki and Plagg, is that you can't control what you get. Only whom. You would be fated to be not only lovers but also enemies. They must choose for themselves even if it tears you apart. No interference must be made. Will it be worth it in the long run? Or will you just crumble and fall?" The dark voice echoed around the aurora. Thoughts moved like lightning around the little Kwamis heads, would their saving also be their undoing?

"12 hours, is all the time I will give you, make your decision." The booming voice echoed again.

"Do you have any cheese? Camembert specifically but today I'm not feeling picky." Plagg's question was replied with the absence of the spiritual presence. Tikki rolled her eyes, she normally would have scolded him for thinking about food at a time like this however she balked at using words that indicated any sense of normality. Deciding that now was not the time to worry about that, she called out to the open space, "Any chocolate-chip cookies while your at it?!"

There was a pause where Plagg looked at Tikki, somewhat shocked, he broke into a wide grin after she snorted, "What? I can appreciate food too, I just usually don't think with my stomach." She barely finished the sentence before she was pulled into a hug by the little black god. She sighed, it would have been perfect if the weight of their chosen's didn't rest on their shoulders. It was a very large burden for their tiny shoulders.

How many times would they have to go through before they saw each other, and were allowed to be together, as soulmates, ying and yang and as creation and destruction. How would that affect the entire city they were destined to protect? Tikki hoped it wouldn't be long but it couldn't be said for sure how long it could be before she saw Plagg again. She cast a glance sideways, Plagg was also lost deep in thought. Could she bare to lose one she loved? However it seemed fate had decided for them.

"Plagg whatcha thinking about?" Plagg couldn't help but smile at the sweetness in her voice, it filled up the hollow space like a candle without its bushel.

"I'm thinking that we have have to save them no matter what, even if we're torn apart, we can save so many more this way. Plus there was always a chance for our chosen's to be enemies from the beginning. I'm thinking this is just increasing the chances, and will make our time together as lovers even more special. So let's savour and make the most of what's left of our 12 hours." Plagg's voice, despite being a whisper filled the space making it clear on the decision. After a moment of thought Tikki replied, "You know it's so rare that you say anything from the heart? I guess that's just the little bit of me in you, the small ying to the yang. But you're right, let's savour this, and for once I'll enjoy the destruction caused, of only to enjoy the creation afterward."

_time skip_

"Plagg, it's been centuries since we could be together" Tikki softly, she was slightly worried the last 3 chosen pair had opted for enemies. It had been indeed along time since that fateful 12 hours, where the weight of the world rested on their shoulders.

"Our decision sure made a huge impact on our guidelines and operating lines, but I think ultimately it was worth it." Plagg whispered back, he was overwhelmed every time he could be with Tikki. It was true that rough patches had gone by but observing children, learning about them. Typically their chosen's were soulmates. Not always, but most often, it aided the choosing process. Finally they settled on a pair of children. One blond, the other a dark haired beauty. Both children were beautiful but the girl, she was something that took her breath away. Tikki could only hope that she was raised by a loving family, and she couldn't wait to meet her.

A thought continually ran through Tikki's head as she observed the little girl,

'This could be the one, the one that chooses him, and sets the record straight' but another thought told her not to get her hopes up. And that 'Only time will tell'
